This book represents the first comprehensive treatment of
high-order harmonic generation in laser-produced plumes, covering
the principles, past and present experimental status and important
applications. It shows how this method of frequency conversion of
laser radiation towards the extreme ultraviolet range matured over
the course of multiple studies and demonstrated new approaches in
the generation of strong coherent short-wavelength radiation for
various applications. Significant discoveries and pioneering
contributions of researchers in this field carried out in various
laser scientific centers worldwide are included in this first
attempt to describe the important findings in this area of
nonlinear spectroscopy.High-Order Harmonic Generation in Laser
Plasma Plumes is a self-contained and unified review of the most
recent achievements in the field, such as the application of
clusters (fullerenes, nanoparticles, nanotubes) for efficient
harmonic generation of ultrashort laser pulses in
cluster-containing plumes and resonance-induced enhancement of
harmonic yield. It can be used as an advanced monograph for
researchers and graduate students working in the field of nonlinear
spectroscopy. It is also suitable for researchers in laser physics
and nonlinear optics who wish to have an overview of the advanced
achievements in laser ablation-induced high-order harmonic
generation spectroscopy. The carefully presented details of this
book will be of value to research devoted to the understanding and
control frequency conversion of laser pulses in plasma plumes.The
studies described in this book pave the way for the development of
a new method of materials studies using the laser ablation-induced
high-order harmonic generation spectroscopy, which can exploit the
spectral and structural properties of various solid-state materials
through their ablation and further propagation of short laser pulse
through laser-produced plasma and generation of high-order
harmonics.
